Why does the breeding industry need to use ammonia alarm

Time: 2022-01-26
At present, the poisonous and harmful gas commonly encountered in the breeding industry is ammonia.
 
Ammonia is a recognized stressor and one of the harmful gases in animal pens. It is also the reason why the breeding industry needs ammonia alarm.
 
The sources of ammonia in the breeding area can be divided into two aspects:
 
1. Exogenous sources
The degradation and decomposition of a large amount of feces and urine discharged by animals every day will continuously degrade and produce various harmful gases, mainly ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, methane, stink and so on. The temperature is low in winter and spring, and the delivery room and nursing home are closed for thermal insulation, which is not conducive to the discharge of toxic and harmful gases such as ammonia, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. These gases will continue to accumulate in the house, resulting in gradually higher concentration.
2. Endogenous sources
Endogenous ammonia refers to ammonia in blood, and its main sources include:
1) The ammonia produced by the undigested nitrogen-containing compounds decomposed by pathogenic bacteria in the intestinal tract or the shed matter of intestinal mucous is absorbed through the intestinal mucous epithelial cells and enters the blood circulation through the portal circulation, raising the blood ammonia;
2) Protein or amino acid in muscle tissue
Amine or ammonia produced by denomination during normal metabolism or tissue and organ injury, as well as ammonia produced by amide hydrolysis of amino acids.
 
What are the hazards of ammonia to aquaculture?
 
Ammonia can cause the rapid growth and metabolism of mucous cells. At the same time, the detoxification process of ammonia is a highly energy consuming process. Therefore, the energy used by animals for growth and production will be reduced accordingly, which will affect the growth performance of animals and induce other diseases.
 
Necessity of installing ammonia detector in aquaculture industry:
Ammonia is a poisonous, colorless gas with strong irritating odor. It is adsorbed on the skin mucous and eye conjunctiva of chickens, which stimulates them and causes various inflammation. It is very necessary to install ammonia detector in the breeding area, which can monitor the ammonia concentration in real time and provide convenience for the growth of animals.

The fixed ammonia alarm is installed on site and can detect the ammonia concentration in the shed for 24 hours.

Portable ammonia alarm, which can be carried with you, can be opened and used at any time, and is particularly convenient.
